A chauffeur worked for a woman who took her cat with her on rides.
During one trip, the driver dropped her at a mall before he gasing up. The cat remained in the car, laying down on the top of the limousine's back seat.

The service station's attendant often glanced at unusual passenger.

Finally, he asked: "Sir, is that cat someone important?"

Hungarian playwright Ferenc Molnar and a friend were once given complimentary tickets to a rather mediocre play. After the opening scene, Molnar rose and prepared to leave.

"Now where are you going?" the friend asked with annoyance. "To the ticket office," Molnar replied, "to buy two tickets so we can leave!"

In my university bookshop the other day, inquiring about the availability of a book for my research, I told the lady behind the counter that I had all the details of the book, and asked if she wanted the Title, Author list, Publisher, or what?

"The ISBN number is all I need. Its the world standard! With the ISBN number, I can locate the book on the computer and order it for you."

I handed over the sheet of paper with the details and pointed to the ISBN number.

"Oh, you've got the American ISBN number, and we need the European ISBN number."

Larry Hagman once purchased a Malibu home next to that of Burgess Meredith (whom he had known, and occasionally worked with, for some forty years). When his alterations yielded a home two inches higher than planned, Meredith sued and, after a prolonged legal battle, lost.

Some time later, Meredith, originally a Shakespearean actor, fell upon hard times and was obliged to accept the embarrassing role of the Penguin on the campy hit television series "Batman".

Apprised that Meredith was planning a large party (to which he of course had not been invited), Hagman ordered fifty flags emblazoned with the Penguin's image. Then, on the day of the party, he flew the flags above his home and waved to his livid neighbor's guests while a looped tape of the Penguin's trademark cries blasted from his windows.

(The men later made amends.)

My mother works in a bank. She told me that every once in a while the printer would go crazy and spit out dozens of blank pages for no reason. I told her that sometimes happens when somebody prints a binary file that contains unprintable characters.

The next day, she proudly announced to everyone in the office that the reason the printer goes crazy is because it's printing "unmentionable" characters.
